SPOILERS! The upcoming animated series Star Wars: 'The Bad Batch' will see the return of not only Clone Force 99, but also many other characters from the greater Star Wars franchise. . . including Peter Cushing's much loved and respected Grand Moff Tarkin. Sounds exciting, so I will say no more... what do you think?
Star Wars: The Bad Batch is scheduled to premiere on Disney+ on May 4, 2021, Star Wars day, with a special 70-minute episode. The second episode will release on May 7, 2021, with subsequent episodes releasing weekly.
FOR SUCH AN ACCOMPLISHED ACTOR, with such a long and varied career, Peter
Cushing after his early TV awards in the 1950's wasn't acknowledge, by
his peers maybe as much as he should have been. He was very surprised
and humbled to be awarded his OBE in 1989 but the award he was presented
with in 1971, for his performance as Arthur Grimsdyke in 'Tales from
the Crypt' he was particularly proud of.
This
was presented to him at the 2nd French Convention of Fantasy Cinema.
They also acknowledge him with 'Most Popular Actor in France 1971 –
2nd French Convention of Fantasy Cinema (For his roles in Fantasy
Entertainment and service to the cinema) too! These awards are now owned
by Simon Greetham, who was kind enough to take some snaps and send
them to me, to share today...
